Can you tell me what part is dishonest and wrong? I didn’t say something like “everyone should use Linux”, I just said it’s not so different if you learn it from scratch. Operating systems are tools, if you need Windows you probably should use Windows instead of expecting WINE to run them correctly, that’s a waste of time. It’s for people who are using only Linux. If you’re curious you can always try dual-boot and see things for yourself.
For gaming, I’ve been playing Windows games on Linux exclusively for 4 years and there are only 2 games I still cannot run on my system, and I have 1000 games. Again, this is for people who choose Linux as their OS. If you want Windows games to run without doing extra things, you probably should use Windows. However, if you use only Linux, the gaming experience is pretty much great nowadays. Steam Deck is a good example.
Im talking more generally, people always claim its the greatest thing since sliced bread but it’s just not. And i’ve been around the block many times, love linux on servers etc. Desktop is hell though.
I’m not saying it’s perfect but I think it’s the best for people’s interest, as for privacy and security. Windows is getting more anti-consumer any other day, otherwise I have nothing against it besides this. If you need Windows, use Windows.
One “problem” with Linux desktop is, you can poke up every part of it. MacOS and Windows don’t tend to break because they don’t let you do this out of the box. If you don’t meddle with Linux desktop, you won’t break it as well. However most of the Linux newbies want to customize everything and it breaks naturally since they touch parts that they shouldn’t. If you’re learning, that’s okay. If you’re a standard user, you won’t do that anyway.
